About Me

I'm a biologist here in Fairbanks Alaska, at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. I like to backpack and muck around on mountains in my spare time (As if I have spare time), and think that if you're going to have a beer, you should have a good beer and not swill.
I am not to be confused with a large ungulate with palmate antlers.
